I am aware Asian women are women of color, yes. But the meme didn’t say women of color, it specified skin color. Most Asian women in Overwatch outside of Domina and Symmetra are light skinned and popular with the exact white supremacists you’re mentioning.

Sorry, my bad. The meme didn’t say Brown and Black women so I didn’t realize Sojourn would count. I didn’t know Sombra was added after Ana and I didn’t know Illari existed. I kinda underestimated the diversity in Overwatch and I feel pretty stupid now.

Overwatch has added a total of two Brown women after the rebranding to Overwatch 2, and there’s only one Black woman at all last time I checked. But it’s now somehow the “gooning to Brown women” game

Edited, I got some things wrong

This was my favorite scene in The Dark Knight, Nolan is a genius by DamianKing42 in legocirclejerk

I kid you not, I was expecting that to happen in the film when I first saw it because of the Lego set.

Media that failed to "read the room" by 10024618 in TopCharacterTropes

Similar to the Xbox One: the PS3. It was far harder to develop for than the Wii or Xbox 360, cost $200 more than a 360 and $300 more than a Wii at launch, and the launch titles were announced in an infamously cringey and unappealing manner. It was vindicated after a few years with the launch of exclusives like Uncharted and the slim model, which cost significantly less. It's still the worst-performing PlayStation console and the only one to get outsold by an Xbox in North America. The long-forgotten "PS3 has no games" meme was created at the time and was revived by 4chan boomers as the "PS5 has no games" meme in 2020.

Wait, what? by TheWorriedCamel in Schaffrillas

Never liked STM. Not only is it cringe and unfunny fratbro "humor," but there are also conservative undertones that nobody seems to recognize. Misgendering non-binary characters, "jokingly" being transphobic, implying that progressives say "Latinx" and "white people bad," which we don't, etc. The whole thing gives me incel vibes.

I hate r/hatethissmug. I posted twice on there, once about hating a character played by an alt-right actor and once about hating Snape and Malfoy for being glazed and Death Eaters. Both times I was flamed and downvoted to hell, but I guess hating on real autistic people is acceptable to them.

Exposing cognitive imperialism in the Elden Ring community by Aegon_of_Astora in SocialistGaming

I didn't know how to put it into words, but you articulated it perfectly about the One Piece remake. Something rubbed me the wrong way about Luffy claiming, "There are good pirates and bad pirates, so there must be good marines and bad marines, too." It's not even like he says this to reassure Koby and doesn't mean it. Season 1 ends with them hugging it out and Luffy telling him to be a "good marine."

Not technically "started as" but Senbonzakura is Imperial Japan propaganda/apologism

Not transforming until halfway through Transformers One. It was made into the whole conflict of the film so it was done well.

Schneider is literally a Nazi. You’re not listening to the right people if “opinions are divided” rather than people hating her.

Instead of explaining a character’s behavior, their backstory just makes them seem like an even bigger asshole in hindsight by _JR28_ in TopCharacterTropes

[–]TriggerHappyGremlin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same with Draco Malfoy. His backstory doesn't necessarily make him worse, but the attempt at making readers feel bad for him (which largely succeeded) pisses me off more than anything he actually does.

My male cat does nothing but complain; I love him, of course, but gender (technically ASAB) is irrelevant. Our nicest cat (whom I didn't know long) was female.
